Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 476

Chapter 476: 476-She Was Always Watching

Yorick:

I had no idea what was going on or why Clementine was being so affectionate with my parents until I remembered the injection. It was going to take some time for me to adjust to the change.

My mother gave my father a reassuring smile before looking back at Clementine.

"We would like it done as quickly as possible so that we can see our grandchildren," my mother expressed, making me clench my fist tightly around my fork.

Honestly, seeing Clementine this way filled me with guilt. This was not her. This was not how she was supposed to be.

"Whatever you guys like," Clementine replied with a smile.

She finished her food, then got up to help my mother.

"Oh, you cannot even walk properly and you want to help me?" my mother remarked, tilting her head and speaking kindly to Clementine.

Clementine being affectionate with my parents and looking at me dreamily was the expected reaction to the injection.

However, her wanting to help my mother was all her. That was who she was. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

The injection was not meant to change much about her. It was only supposed to change how she felt about me.

"Clementine, you need to rest. Mom is right. You cannot even hold yourself up," I told her, gently tapping my fingers against her elbow to get her attention before taking the plates from her hands.

She watched me step into the kitchen and leave the dishes in the sink before I returned to her.

"Come on, let’s go," I said as I wrapped my arm around her, holding her close while guiding her upstairs.

"Why do you not carry her?" my mother giggled as she suggested it.

I looked at Clementine, and she nodded her head, reassuring me that it would be fine. I wrapped my arms around her and lifted her, carrying her upstairs.

"Look at them. Aren’t they cute?" my mother commented briefly.

As I walked away with Clementine, once inside the room, I placed her on the bed and pulled the blanket over her. I turned my head to make sure the door was locked before looking back at her.

"Again, I am sorry about my parents talking about marriage and all that," I commented, fixing my jacket so I could sit comfortably with her.

"It is all right. They are just parents who want their son to give them good news soon," she replied, smiling, with little to no animosity in her eyes.

"Thank you for getting along well with them," I uttered. "I mean, after what we did to you, you did not have to."

I quickly looked down, gently pinching my fingers together as the guilt grew heavier inside me.

"What are you talking about, Yorick?" she asked. Her voice was soft as she reached for my hand, taking me by surprise.

I snapped my head up and looked at her face in confusion.

"Listen, whatever I had with Ian is in the past. Once I was back with you, I realized you are the one I want," she continued in a quiet, careful tone, causing goosebumps to rise along my skin.
